Any truth to planning the sex of your baby?

Question by Delia:

Any truth to planning the sex of your baby?

I keep reading everywhere that you can plan having a boy or girl by the day you conceive in your ovulation cycle. I've heard if you have sex a couple days before you ovulate, you are more likely to have a girl because the "female sperm" is slower.

Has anyone tried this and been successful with planning for a boy or girl? Just wondering if there is any real truth to this.

Thank you!

Well, we didn't really plan for it, but it worked out to the rule so to speak. We had sex 3 days before ovulation, and not again until after I ovulated and we did conceive a girl. They say that not only are the female sperm slower, but stronger than the males so they can really last much longer.
